[QUOTE="Azoriel, post: 5962949, member: 2898"] Despite the flavor text about a schismed mind's autonomy, it's not a completely separate entity - rather, it's merely an extension of the mind that spawned it. It doesn't get it's own psionic focus and doesn't get it's own swift/immediate actions each round. All it gives you is an extra standard action and a 2nd save vs. certain effects. Beyond that, you get nothing else - it counts as part of you for all other purposes (whether it be a redospi you manifest on yourself, a targeted dispel, or travel via dimension door). Even if this weren't the case, you'd still be hosed, because the schismed mind is [U]also[/U] using the dimension door effect, so therefore [U]also[/U] can't take actions. The only way this [B]doesn't[/B] happen is if you argue that you left your completely autonomous schismed mind behind when you dimension doored. In which case, you'd reach your destination short half a head, with your brains leaking out from both parts. And, given that you're probably dead or dying at that point, you still won't get to take any more actions that round. :eek: [/QUOTE]
